"It’s very rare that I have the opportunity to travel outside of the United States, and it’s even more rare to have the opportunity to travel with three generations — with my daughters, and with my mother," she said. "And it is no accident that one of our first trips as a family is here to China."

She probably travels outside the US just as much as I do but the difference is I or the company I’m do work for is paying for mine.

The satire just writes itself these days. Mrs. Great Leader has a much less rare chance of international travel than the unwashed masses who are so undeserving of her heinous.

A grifter. A self-entitled token minority, royal ascendant who probably really believes that if she doesn’t travel abroad once a month that it is “seldom” despite the lavish MTV Cribs boondoggle trips she’s made.

Utterly disgusting.
